Public approval for same-sex marriage has skyrocketed in the US, with nearly two-thirds of respondents favoring legal recognition of homosexual unions in a new survey. The Pew Research study found that 62% of Americans favored same-sex marriage, with only 32% opposed. The result represents a stunning change from 2010, when only a minority (42%) supported same-sex marriage&#x97;and even from last year, when the figure stood at 55%. Self-identified Catholics were even more likely than the overall sample to favor same-sex unions. Roughly two-thirds of Catholics (67%) and mainline Protestants (68%) supported legal recognition of same-sex unions. Among religious groups, only...Catholic Culturehttps://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-religion/3565347/posts#commentFri, 30 Jun 2017 02:43:12 GMTPoll: Voters Don&#x92;t Trust Polls, See Anti-Trump Biashttps://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3550493/posts
Most voters don&#x92;t trust political polls and tend to think pollsters are out to stop President Trump&#x92;s agenda. Just 26% of Likely U.S. Voters say they trust most political polls. The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 55% do not trust most political polls. Nineteen percent (19%) are undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

A majority of Americans disapprove of President Trump&#x27;s work during his first week in the White House - breaking a record of how long it generally takes the majority of Americans to disapprove of a president. On Saturday, 51 percent of Americans disapproved of Trump, a Gallup poll found. The poll tracks daily approval ratings for Trump by surveying 1,500 Americans. It took just eight days to reach these ratings. It took at least several hundred days for the majority of Americans to disapprove of past presidents.TheHillhttps://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3519533/posts#commentTue, 31 Jan 2017 06:59:26 GMTDonald Trump&#x27;s approval rating at 40%, lowest of any incoming president in decadeshttps://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3514786/posts
When President-elect Donald Trump takes the oath of office Friday, he&#x27;ll be the most unpopular man to do so in decades, two new polls showed. A majority of Americans - 54% - have an unfavorable opinion of the incoming president, a Tuesday Washington Post/ABC News poll showed. A second survey, conducted by CNN and ORC, reported that 52% of people do not approve of the way the president-elect has been handling the transition. In each poll, just 40% of respondents said they view Trump and his transition team favorably.NY Daily Newshttps://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3514786/posts#commentTue, 17 Jan 2017 12:58:29 GMTMSNBC Reporter Has No Idea She&#x92;s Live During Interview, Tells Clinton Aide What She&#x92;ll Be Askinghttps://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3406046/posts
